i travelled with my family from villupuram to Puducherry today at 06.15 pm through the bus 3263. I took ticket to Villianur – Kottaimedu stop. They did not stop the bus in that stopping. They stopped at the next stop even after reminding them. Conductor said there is no stopping there. I carried my children and heavy bags. The conducted was cracking jokes to the driver and they both were chatting without stopping the bus at the exact stoppage even at kandamangalam, madhakadipet etc. They dont want the passengers to get the bus and they were only dropping the passengers in each stop and start the bus.I request you to take action on this. Am not sure whether this message reaches you. If there is no response for the next two days, i will be writing mail to the CM cell. You can contact me at 99440 25608. Am a HR Trainer.

Joe. No online reservations are available for Chennai to Tiruvannamalai buses. But there are plenty of buses running in this route. You can goto CMBT(Chennai Mofussil Bus Terminus) to take a bus to Tiruvannamalai form Chennai.

Dear all,
Being villupuram a connectivity center there should be buses operated from milligram to important south locations especially in night. Buses coming all the way from chennai is fully loaded and passengers are waiting more than 4 hrs minimum to get a bus.

Asking the TNSTC Vilupuram unit to run buses to Velankanni and Tiruvarur from Villupuram. The service from VILLUPURAM to Velankanni was popular with passengers. Two buses were opeated on this route and earns more revenue. The service of the bus was good so is the crew. I used to go to Mayavaram quite often by the bus. Please again operate buses on the same time.

Last week I went from Katpadi Rly Stn by govt bus route no.1 to Rajeev Gandhi nagar after Officers’ Lines.The bus stop for it was Collector’s bungalow or Circuit house. The conductor said that the bus would not go there.I told him that I went there earlier by the same bus and the names of the govt offices & private premises as Dr Ida Scudder’s grave near it.He still said that the bus would not go there.Another passenger told him where it was. He then gave me a ticket.He said that he was new.I told him that like many conductors who are new to a route he must write von a thick stiff card,the names of stops & stages & the fares till he becomes familiar. I know his name but will not disclose it.It can happen to anyone who is new to a route.

I was worried if I would miss the bus stop.So I kept looking out through the window bending & straining my back & neck.It was not opened fully. The upper half was covered with advertisements blocking my view. Please insist on advertisements which are with small holes in them which let us see through them. Your company can also earn it’s income.

A driver named ramalingam driving virudachalam bus from kumbakonam(2965) doesn’t have respect or politeness towards the passengers…he treats the passengers as a servent of his house…i request the authorities to take some action on yhis concerned driver and to teach him some responsibility..

In Vellore District many Town Buses are running , but in Nemili Town Panchyat area Not a Single Town Buses Running . i Saw at Vellore , Gudiyatham , Thiruttani , Arcot ,arani , ambur ,areas mostly town buses running to villages , but i Nemili Area Not a Single town bus available . WHY ?

sir,super deluxe buses operating by the vpm depot is not willing to take the passenger from trichy to Villupuram during Saturday and Sunday especially at night times.setc and kumbakonam depot deluxe buses are ignoring the Villupuram passenger’s but
vpm depot buses also ignoring vpm passenger’s .so take necessary action on this problem and make deluxe buses available for trichy to Villupuram passengers.

I believe TNSTC villupuram has also added kallakurichi as one of the regions other than the existing regions. Is it correct ? if yes, what are the depots associated with them. I remember seeing a bus the depot mentioned like this K / Vri-2 (Kallakurichi / Vridhachalam-2 depot)

Thanks for your information can you get us the picture of the bus. if yes it will be update with the pic of the bus. and one more help make we have given the timings as per your info. if you found any mistake update us.

Yesterday [27/02/2016] around 17.00 hrs, the bus [ Route No.201 – Chennai – Tirupathi], was plying near Velappan Chavai to Koyambedu in a rash and arrogant manner.The driver abuses all the road users, driving rashly, fast and zig zag just like a bicycle in thick traffic.

Sir,
I am leaving in Podatturpettai. many of the persons are catching train at tiruttani and arrakkonam in the morning and return to native in night but most of the time we are unable to catch the bus in time for going to tiruttani and arrakkonam railway station we are suffer very much. I hereby request you kindly arrange the bus for rail time this is useful to college student, all type of workers those who are going to thiruvallur, chennai etc.

Sir,
I am residing at podatturpettai. we have bus depot under the control of tnstc-villupuram. But it is not functioning properly with many number of buses and route. Kindly take necessary action. We wish to know the reasons for not functioning properly. At the same time recently open sholingar bus depot having many buses why this partiallity.

On 23.4.2016 I travelled from vellore to Poonamallee by your bus which was marked 1 to 1. Though 4 buses were available the conductor of this bus asked me to get into his bus as there was not even a single passenger. The bus started with 60% capacity passengers. I gave Rs.500 for the fare of Rs.67. To sort out the change issue, I gave Rs.17 also. The conductor gave back only Rs.400 and said would give the balance Rs.50 later. He was seen giving the change of Rs.50 to nearly 4 other passenger who boarded the bus later. At the time of alighting at Poonamalle, I asked the balance of Rs.50. He was wondering Rs.50?. Then he reluctantly asked to give Rs.50 so that he would give rs.100. Had I been able to give that initially I would have given it, I told him. Then he gave Rs.100 to an entirely stranger and asked me to get Rs.50 from him & asked me to get down. I insisted him to give my money. But the conductor called me by my religion and with mean words he slapped on my neck and pushed me down from the bus.
Is this the way the passengers are to be treated by the so called public servants? What action the passenger requires to take against these rogues? Will be transport administration taken action against this rogue conductor?

Respected Sirs, I want to know that our busses of Trichy, Salem, Kumbakonam, Madurai, Palani, Coimbatore have a stopping at Kurinjipadi Bus stand during night time. Some times in days those are passing through the buypass road. During night times they are passing through buy pass. It is so inconvenient for public. I have also such experience when travelled with family. Sorry for the distrubances. I would like point out that the tickets are issued for Kurinjipadi but they are passing through buy pass. It is one km from buy pass stopping to Bus stand. We are suffering so much. If those buses have not stopping Kurinjipadi bus stand, kindly arrange to pass through Kurinjipadi Bus stand during day and night times so as to avoid inconveniences for college going students, business people, pilgirimage, etc…

Sir,most of the time night travellers felt so uncomfortable because no frequent buses are arranged. Today 14/08/17 I want to travel from kallakurichi to Chennai I went there bus stand by 11.00 pm there are no buses operated from kallakurichi to Chennai. The most of the working people prefer this time to travel but there are no buses there only buses from Salem to Chennai only pass via through this route which is also already filled from Salem itself. With this most of the students also suffer a lot. More than a 200 people around there most of the families, stustudents and working people waited for more than two hours but no buses operated from kallakurichi depot as I enquired there in depot, they said the next bus is only from 3.30 am untill how they are waiting. I am here not to blame anyone. I am just here tell my view about how people suffer when traveling in night. Take necessary step to arrange bus for night travellers if bus is not available take enough step to buy some new buses if there is no enough drivers and conductors means take enough step to hiring new peoples. I don’t who is going to see this and take enough step but someone who is seeing have authority to do some changes please take enough step to overcame this situation.

Am from Madurantakam. On some peak/festival times, few conductors are not allowing the passengers to get into the bus and saying, this bus will not be stop at Maduranthakam bypass. When do some search, have found a page, it says all type of buses which is operated from Villupuram depot to Chennai has a stop at Maduranthakam bypass and vice versa. Do we have any complaint number or provision to complain about those conductors to make the TNSTC as more friendly public service sector. Really would appreciate if we have any options to report these incidents immediately when it’s happening itself rather than complaining later time.

I travelled with my son to chittoor on Oct 2nd,2017. My son age is 2.8 months. The conductor forced me to buy the ticket for my son which is not at an rule as per my knowledge. Also the ticket fare is rs.47. When compared to last 2 months the price is hiked by rs 6 silently without any news. Can anyone look into this issue.
